It feels so close, that moment when the last bit of snow finally disappears from the grass, indicating – IT’S GOLF TIME! The long winter freeze is in the rearview mirror with only sights of longer days and warmer weather in the forecast. Initiate the happy dance!

The Kamloops golf season traditionally kicks off in March. (Hello, earlier than expected!) As a semi-arid desert, we don’t generally get big snow packs at low elevation, which tees up the perfect recipe for early season golf. Our golf maintenance crews have winter maintenance dialed to ensure you can be swinging as soon as the white stuff makes mass exodus.

With all this in consideration, spring golf in Kamloops looks pretty darn fantastic and here is the bonus… playing early season delivers BIG value.

With 8 incredible championship courses and fantastic accommodation choices, building your spring golf getaway is easy.

Choose Your Golf

Aiming to win the first swing bets against your pals? Mark your calendar for mid-March and add Rivershore Golf Links or the Dunes at Kamloops to your must play list. Both courses line the banks of the South and North Thompson Rivers and are typically the first in Kamloops to drop their flags. Close behind and equally as awesome are Kamloops Golf & Country Club and Bighorn Golf and Country Club. The 8 layouts round out with Eaglepoint Golf Resort generally opening next, followed by the top ranked tracks at Tobiano and Talking Rock Golf Course, which generally open in early April. A round in the mountains at the Golf Course at Sun Peaks Resort can generally be teed up for mid-May.

Beyond the Course

Tee times are key… we get it, but so are your accommodation choices. Spring weekends fill up super fast considering Kamloops is Canada’s Tournament Capital. With that in mind, securing a spot to crash after your big day on the course is important. Kamloops offers a myriad of accommodation choices dispersed throughout the city for ultimate convenience.
